Thus begins my second to last blog as on of "those" people:
III. Proclamations.
1. Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month.
Fact: Motorcycles are fun.
Fact: 4-Wheel cage drivers aren't looking out for motorcycles.
Motorcycling presents more risk thus requiring greater defensive posturing while operating one.
Also, I love motorcycles.

Mine on the way up to McDonald Observatory in the Davis Mountains:
2. National Day of Prayer. May 5th a county Mayor's breakfast calling for a day of prayer for our country.
V. Consent Agenda.
All passed without discussion 7-0.
VI. Appointments.
1. Ruth Peck had some things to say about Music Fest. Also gave some gifts to parting councilmen.
2. Fella came to explain "congregate care facilities." Basically, it was explained as a long term hotel-resort for the senior citizens.
Long discussion ensued.
VII. Public Hearing Items.
1. TIF stuff for PD-32. No none spoke, no action taken.
VIII. Action Items.
1. TIF stuff, passed 7-0 without discussion.
2. Gun range needs fixing. We share the facility with multiple law enforcement departments. Total repairs are $410,000, are part is about 27%.
3. SUP's for all future elder care facilities? Maybe, but not on this go round. Long discussion led to a motion to have staff look into requiring SUP's for any type of senior living facility. Passed 5-2, Sevier and Russo opposed.
4. Banners? We don't need no sticking banners. Ordinance banning all off premise banners passed 7-0, effective August 7.
5. Banner stuff for special events, related to item #4. Passed 7-0.
6. Changed maximum allowed height for front yard fences from 42" to 48".
7. Employees given a bonus (haven't had step increase pay raise in 2 years) due to higher than expected sales tax revenue. Police also got an increase in pay. Passed 7-0.
